The form here is the concentrated one, and that matters for reading the table: dehydration and grinding reduce water weight, so oxalate per standard serving rises relative to the fresh version of the same base food. Coriander seed Herbs and Spices lands at 19 mg per serving, in the middle of the family range across the family's measured range. Related forms in this family: Ginger Herbs and Spices (Ginger 3) (17 mg), Curry Powder Herbs and Spices (19 mg), Orange Peel Herbs and Spices (13 mg).

Spices are the one food family where serving size dominates the oxalate question completely. At a gram or two per teaspoon, the difference between spice entries matters less than how often the jar comes out of the cupboard — a daily-seasoning spice and a holiday-only spice are different exposure categories even at similar per-serving numbers. Coriander seed Herbs and Spices measures 19 mg per teaspoon serving. Nearby entries in this category: Curry Powder Herbs and Spices (19 mg), Allspice Herbs and Spices (20 mg), Anise Herbs and Spices (20 mg).
